Fountain Fun Across London

Summer is here! And what better way to enjoy it than in the water? We may not be on the coast and near a sea but there are plenty of play fountains across London for you to have fun! It’s time to jump in!

Hyde Park
This unique fountain is a memorial to Diana, Princess of Wales in Hyde Park. It is the perfect place for a picnic with the family as Hyde Park is huge!

You’re even allowed to sit on the edge of the fountain and cool your feet. How refreshing! There are loads of other things to do in Hyde Park too such as boating, plenty of cafés and even a lido! Click here to find out more.

John Madejski Garden
The John Madejski Garden inside the V&A’s Courtyard has a main feature which is a stone-paved oval covered in water, with surrounding steps and water jets.

Somerset House
At Somerset House, the courtyard has 55 fountains. The array of jets dance in an orchestrated sequence every half hour, with added coloured lighting at night and can reach up to six metres high!

Southbank CentreJeppe Hein’s ‘Appearing Rooms’ is an interactive fountain where walls of water shoot into the air that disappear as quickly as they emerge creating a series of constantly changing ‘rooms’.

This invites visitors of all ages to try their luck at predicting its next move, often getting splashed in the process. A refreshing experience!Click here to find out more

More London Riverside
The fountains outside the City Hall and the amphitheatre, The Scoop are lit beautifully and are just continuous falling jets.
